(1) what controller id does the command want and (2) is there a better way to monitor the MSA from VMS for failures?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Monitoring MSA1000 from OpenVMS - MSA$UTIL questions
Do a $ show dev gg /full to find out which device(s) are your MSA controllers. You can then use that in MSA_UTIL.
Example:
CLCC> sho dev gg/full
Device $1$GGA101:, device type COMPAQ MSA1000, is online, shareable.
Error count 0 Operations completed 13
Owner process "" Owner UIC [SYSTEM]
Owner process ID 00000000 Dev Prot S:RWPL,O:RWPL,G:RWPL,W:RWPL
Reference count 0 Default buffer size 0
WWID 02000008:5008-05F3-0010-F680
CLCC> run sys$etc:msa_util
MSA> set controller $1$gga101:
MSA> show controller
Controller: _$1$GGA101: (DEFAULT)
MSA1000 (c) COMPAQ P56350DX3PQ08F Software 4.48

SolutionTthe command console lun (CCL) or the Storage Array ControSACD, depending on what generation widget) probably needs a UDID.
On some of the fibre channel controllers, it's the command "set this_controller identifier=[identifier]" to get the CCL visible, while the Modular Smart Array (MSA) 1000 and 1500 (MSA1000, MSA1500) series use "set this_controller_id [identifier]", where the identifier is a numeric value unique to each controller; each controller gets its own value. Try configuring that, and see if the $1$GGA (GG; console) device pops into existence on next controller and OpenVMS boot.
The documentation in this area is weak, at best, and I don't have an MSA1000 handy to check. This is from memory.

Re: Monitoring MSA1000 from OpenVMS - MSA$UTIL questions
Any ideas how I can monitor for errors on the MSA1000? With the Smart Arrays, I could use WBEM and some home grown tools to look over the error log.
